Continuing the Ramones theme: one night after "Carmona Not Glue" we have "Gabbard Gabbard Hey". 1, 2, 3, 4 ...

Gabbard is the third pitcher in Red Sox history to win his first five home starts, joining George Winter (1901) and Boo Ferriss (1945). In July, Gabbard is 3-0 with a 1.92 ERA, with 11 hits allowed in his past 28 innings.

RedSox.com:

Lee was hit hard again on Saturday in Texas, giving up seven runs on eight hits in 6.2 innings to lose his third consecutive start. In going 0-3 since July 6, he has allowed 19 earned runs in his past 16 innings (10.69 ERA). Lee already lost to Boston once this year, allowing three runs on six hits in five innings of a 5-3 defeat on May 28 at Fenway Park.

I heard from a friend That has a friend who is friends with Bronson Arroyo.......Damon and Bronson, I guess are still good friends, That Damon said the clubhouse was a complete nightmare in New York.....

Heard it from a friend whoHeard it from a friend whoHeard it from another you been messin aroundThey say you got a boy friendYoure out late every weekendTheyre talkin about you and its bringin me down

It doesn't surprise me to hear that about the Yankee clubhouse, although who knows. Maybe they like it nice and dry. It's hard to imagine having that kind of overprofessional behavior surrounding what supposed to be a game, no matter how much business and money surround it. But what the hell do we know? Maybe they're having a grand old time in there.

I think Damon will recover some next year, especially if he has the chance to do so for someone else with the Yanks paying half his salary. But it's a little scary to think that we wanted to pay him $40m for...yep, four years.

I don't use Gameday much. The few times I have, it's been as much as 2 batters behind. Super slow.

Wow that is slow, I don't usually use it either since my laptop doesn't have the necessary flash/support/is older than the hills but does what I need for work, but Butterfly is at a dress fitting so am using her laptop and thought I would follow gameday etc.
